Practicing Awareness of Racism: Virtual Zoom Event with Richard Rothstien

3/3/2021

Social work month has me thinking again about our ethical obligation to be advocates.  We read the Color of Law: A Forgotten History of how our Government Segregated America by Richard Rothstien last month for the KSCSW Book Club.  It brought forth a new kind of knowing for me, about the persistent, insidious ways that racism has harmed generations in every possible way.  And now that we know about the injustice in more detail….I can’t stop thinking about what can we do.  If we do nothing, are we condoning it in any way?
I was pleased to see that Lexington has invited this author to a Zoom event where a brief film about his work will be viewed and then a community discussion.  Maybe that is the next thing we can do, to keep learning and growing and practicing awareness of racism in our lives and work.
